Yummy411: Here Comes the Break! FOTD

Okay, my title has nothing to do with this post besides the fact that I'm trying to boost my energy for my idea for my 80's challenge look. However, the song that really stays on my brain and makes me daydream of being a princess on a cloud in a tutu, silver chucks and lipgloss galore is RockStar. Yeh, I'm grown but I need to do the tutu thing once. I never did it as a little girl.

Another funk has arisen and I feel whatever makeup I try to put together doesn't go. Maybe it's because I don't have a focus.. a natural look, a smokey look, a bright look, an evening look... who knows.

I played in makeup trying to do a simple look you might see in Marie Claire or something. A lot of times, the models will look pretty and fresh, but with barely anything on! It amazes me how great they look, with a minimalist approach to makeup. So I tried a subdued look (I usually prefer bolder looks with shimmer), lashes (I buy so many pairs and most of them go to clients or for my portfolio photo shoots and I never try them and go glam) and some of my new brushes, trying to formulate an opinion for my review of them.

Eeks! I can't remember all of what I used, but here are some of the highlights to help make the look

FACE- suntwist beauty powder with my new large badger brush. I like, I like! Margin blush (ooh I'm falling in love all over again) on my cheeks with my #187 dupe that's not pink (sad face).... so far so good!

EYES- hmmmm Milani's Taffy e/s for highlight, a medley of browns cuz this started out as smokey brown look, but then MAC's Eyepopping was staring at me and I applied that to the inner corner with my pointed fluff crease duet brush... (pretty decent for a cheap brush) and Red Earth's yellow (MS108) at the tear duct. La la la! I used Loreal HiP cream blue liner on top lid (SO FREEKIN HOT!) applied with my angle brush from my synthetic brush set.. great for the consistency of the HiP liner and lastly.... Adel #117 falsies... #117 or 116. I need to hit Mindy up ASAP!

LIPS: worn down 1N lipglass and an old lipglass called Digital Jade.

That's all folks... I have so much I want to post about but my camera's dying a slow death. Why you ask? Okay you didn't, but I must vent since my cam is like 50% of my blog. Either my little sister who plays paparazzi to herself or Babyyums broke the casing around the battery compartment which then leaves the batter door ajar. I get about 3 -5 picks before the camera croaks. I planned to buy a new one anyway, but this one still worked!
